It's cheating, but Hazard

Chapter 125 Ferrari and Motorcycle

"You mean I choose players based on their zodiac signs?"

Domenegue sneered at the reporters in the audience.

"I admit that I am obsessed with zodiac signs. Zodiac signs are mysterious and beautiful things. When you study them, you will get a lot of valuable guidance from them. But this does not mean that I select players based on their zodiac signs, or choose whether to play or leave the game."

"Charles' performance is excellent, which is well known, but why doesn't he get injured in the national team? Shouldn't this be attributed to the arrangements made by our coaching team and medical team?"

"It's better to save this kind of question for Real Madrid!"

Domenegue stood up and looked around the audience coldly.

"Sorry, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

After saying that, Domenegue left the post-match press conference directly.

He was originally the winner of this match, but he didn't expect to have to endure such humiliation at the post-match press conference.

After leaving the venue, feeling the cold wind, Domenegue's heart slowly calmed down.

After returning to the locker room and taking a casual look, Domeneg walked out of the locker room after taking out his backpack. "Hurry up and pack your things, boys. I'll wait for you in the car."

After hearing the voices of agreement from the locker room, Domenegue walked towards the team bus with confidence.

After greeting the driver, Domenegue opened his backpack and pulled out a brief information sheet of all the team members and a number of divination tools.

After putting the bag aside, Domenegue laid the tactical board flat on his lap and then took out the astrology dice, which were used to answer short-term questions.

After checking it, Domenegue put the rune up again.

Runes are the earliest Nordic writing, which originally means mystery. Even in modern times, children in some Nordic countries still need to learn this writing from an early age.

Moreover, Rune Runes were originally derived from the six most important symbols in Rune writing. Similar to the Chinese I Ching's emphasis on yin and yang, Rune Runes emphasize ice and fire, a kind of divine guidance, and energy. The characters are suitable for spiritual practice.

Runes have two main uses: 1. Divination, 2. Magic.

There are 25 runes in total, divided into three groups, with one remaining as a blank rune.

Suitable for predicting short-term, macro issues.

Domenegue bought it naturally for divination; he was not particularly interested in magic.

Domenegue put all the runes away, but he always felt something was wrong.

So he quickly arranged all the runes one by one in order.

When he had arranged all the runes, he was struck by lightning when he discovered that two runes were missing!

"What's missing? What exactly is missing?"

Domenegue suddenly felt something was wrong, his hands and feet began to tremble uncontrollably, and he quickly tried to put the tactical board on a chair beside him.

As a result, Domenegue was so nervous that his hands shook, and everything on the tactical board was overturned to the ground.

"Wow!"

Like a bolt from the blue, Domenegue slid to the ground.

And the astrological dice in front of him also showed in order: Venus, Sagittarius, and the Eighth House!

Venus: represents beauty, art, love, sensuality, wealth...

Sagittarius: represents adventure, exploration, openness, faith...

The Eighth House: represents transformation, death, sex, secrets, transcendence...

Faced with the same astrological signs, everyone's interpretation is different, but at this moment Domenegue just felt his whole body trembling.

He quickly picked up all the runes from the ground. This time, his mind was unusually clear.

Missing R and H!

The key words of R are riding and driving, which can be extended to transportation, action, legal risks...

The key words of H are hail, unknown, which can be extended to sudden changes, hesitation, external influences (such as weather changes), changes, setbacks, sudden illness, subconsciousness, desire...

Combined with the result given by the astrological dice, Domenegue staggered out of the car in near despair and ran towards the locker room again.

One of his players is involved in an adventure because of his wealth, and this adventure may very likely result in death!

"Hehe..." Domenegue pushed open the door of the locker room breathlessly, "So, is everyone here?"

All the players in the locker room looked at each other.

"Let's call the roll, and those who are present can answer."

Domenegue felt a little better, and quickly took out the player list and began to call the roll with trepidation.

"Lori—"

"arrive."

"Mandanda——"

"here."

"Sanya——"

"I'm here!"

"Abidal——"

"Yes."

"..."

"Benzema——"

"Yes, coach."

"Ciel——"

No one in the locker room responded.

"Ciel?"

"Ciel!"

Domenegue looked around and couldn't help but let out a sharp explosion, "Where is Ciel?!"

The assistant coach who had just finished using the toilet trotted over to Domenegue and said, "He asked for leave before the game. Didn't you approve it?"

"How could I know that something would happen during just one night's vacation?" Domenegue covered his chest. "Karim, do you know where Charles is now?"

Innocent Benzema stared at Domenegue with his clear eyes and shook his head.

……

At the same time, Charles, who had already been approved for leave, walked out of the stadium excitedly.

In the national derby last season, Charles was unable to travel with the team to Chelsea due to injury. During that time, GP2 happened to hold the 2010 Spanish Grand Prix at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya. The race was just before the Champions League match between Barcelona and Chelsea. Charles watched the game live and met Charles Pique and Jules Bianchi, who are also French.

The two of them had just returned from Belgium not long ago and were going to Italy in a week. They happened to be free now, so the three of them agreed to go out for a walk together after watching Charles' game today.

"here!"

Bianchi saw Ciel and waved.

"Is this your car?"

Ciel got in the back seat, curious.

Charles shook his head. "No, we rented it from a car rental company. Let's go."

"Where are we going to play later?"

Ciel asked with a smile.

"Let's drive a little further away first. The stadium is full of fans right now. You'll be recognized as soon as you get off the car," Bianchi shook his head. "Once we're farther away, we'll get off the car and walk around."

"I only took one night off. After this night, I have to go back." Charles looked at his watch. "I can't play too late. It's a pity that I have to go to Serbia on the 9th, otherwise I could play longer."

"Almost. We'll be going to Italy in a few days." Bianchi's eyes were suddenly attracted by Charles' watch. "Is this your new watch? This wasn't the one you wore last time."

Ciel shook his head. "It's not new. It was given to me by a sponsor. Don't you have a lot of these?"

Unlike football players, it can be said that there are almost no professional cyclists who really live on wages. Compared with wages, sponsorship from sponsors is the biggest expense.

"Van Cleef & Arpels?" Charles glanced at it. "Custom-made?"

“Yes, a custom watch to commemorate the Champions League,” Charles nodded.

Charles fastened his seat belt and drove out steadily, but before he had driven for long, he saw car fans waving many signs in front of him.

Although it was a little dark, Charles could still see the words written on it. "It seems that your fans know that you came to watch the game."

The two of them smiled and said, "Then you didn't see your sign at all."

Looking at the long line of fans on the road, the three had no choice but to get off the car, took the pens handed over by the fans, and started signing.

Charles had just signed two, but he didn't expect the next four fans to be together, "Bianchi, Charles, uh..., let's take a photo together!"

In an instant, all the fans shouted, and the three of them stood together without hesitation. At this time, many fans took out their mobile phones and held them in front of them to take pictures. The three of them also cooperated and stretched out their hands to make a uniform "Yeah" sign.

At this moment, before Charles could react, he felt a sudden huge force on his wrist.

"There's a thief! My watch!"

Charles then looked down and saw that Merde's watch had also been stolen!
The three looked back and saw that the well-trained robbers turned around and ran, riding on multiple motorcycles and starting to flee.

Charles and Bianchi pulled Charles straight into the car.

"Fasten your seatbelts!" Charles said, starting his Ferrari. "Damn thief!"

"So the thieves pretended to be your fans, and when we were taking pictures, they stole my and Bianchi's watches? Do they think they can outrun the racers?"

Charles was puzzled, but shocked.

Bianchi sat next to Ciel, "Merde, but we have to follow the traffic rules, not thieves!"

Then Charles saw with his own eyes that Charles was changing direction while turning on the turn signal. "Come on, our champion, you actually want to compete with the racing driver in driving. Well, forget it, let's just obey the traffic rules. If we can't catch up, will it be considered a humiliation for Ferrari Street Race?"

Charles gripped the steering wheel tightly and said half-jokingly, "Rather than finding our watch, it is more important for us to hope that our gearbox will not have any problems."

"Right now, he's the most miserable person on the planet driving a Ferrari," Bianchi said, trying to make fun of the situation. "Should we say something now?"

Charles was completely amused. He covered his face with his hands and pretended to cry, "Would you rather laugh on a motorcycle or cry on a Ferrari? Wuwuwu——"

Bianchi couldn't hold it in any longer, he clapped his hands on his thighs and laughed non-stop, "Hahahaha——"

After laughing, Bianchi couldn't help but continue to say to Charles, "Plan C, box, box!"

“Copy, copy! Let’s stop here for a while and observe. The motorcycle in front handed the item to a car. We’ll follow it later.” Charles couldn’t hold back the smile on his face. He turned on the turn signal again and stopped on the side of the road. “Hahaha – why do we want to laugh so much even though our watches were stolen? Hahaha.”

"No more," Charles could hardly stop laughing, "I followed them secretly in a Ferrari, passed by quietly, and waited and observed. Ha——"

Bianchi couldn't help it, "Let's call the police first, Charles, how much is your watch?"

"Call the police first. I don't have my phone with me. They can't sell this watch. My name is on it." Charles pinched his face gently. He laughed so happily just now that his face was sore. "Maybe 1000 million?"

The players' cell phones are usually left in the locker room during the game, but Charles forgot to take it when he left just now because he was in such a hurry.

For Charles, whether the watch can be found or not is not that important. Although the customized Van Cleef & Arpels watch is very expensive, if one is gone, the sponsor will send another one.

At this time, Bianchi picked up his mobile phone and called the police.

"Yes, it was...our watches were stolen. How much? The two watches together are worth about 2000 million. Because they are custom-made watches, we don't know the exact amount."

"Yes, yes, yes... Jules Bianchi, Charles Lee."

"What? It's that Ciel from the national team. He's with us now. He's safe... Okay, we got it."

Bianchi hung up the phone. "The operator said the police will be here soon, and these thieves are likely repeat offenders, so we should stop chasing them."

At the same time, he looked at Charles helplessly, "Domeneg is very worried about you now. The operator said that he predicted that you might be in danger not long ago. He called you but no one answered, so he called the police. You should call him now to let him know that you are safe."

"Divination?"

"Divination."

After the call, Charles drove Charles back to Clairefontaine with a smile on his face. "It's amazing, amazing! For the future of our national team, it seems that we must now safely escort our Prince Charles back to the base to recuperate."

……

The next morning, after waking up, Charles did not get up immediately, but lay in bed like a salted fish that had lost its dreams.

After returning to the Clairefontaine training base last night, Charles saw Domenegue standing at the entrance of the base with a flashlight before he even got out of the car.

The white-haired old man was wrapped in a coat, and when the car lights shone on him, what was most eye-catching was not his shining white hair, but the tears that flowed from the corners of his eyes due to the sudden stimulation of the light.

"Bang, bang, bang—Charles, are you there?"

"Come in," Charles put his pillow upright and leaned against the head of the bed, and Benzema pushed the door open. "What happened last night was horrible. Fortunately, you are okay."

"What happened last night?"

Benzema handed the newspaper to Charles. "The robbers you encountered last night were the most rampant robbery gang recently. They had guns in their hands, although they were blank bullets."

"what?"

Charles quickly opened the newspaper.

Le Monde is France's largest-circulation newspaper: "Yesterday, after the match between France and Romania, Charles, Jules Bianchi and Charles Pic were stopped by fans while strolling on the street. When the three signed autographs, robbers disguised as fans of Bianchi and Charles Pic stole the watches of Charles and Bianchi."

"Four suspects have now been arrested. Preliminary investigations show that these three men and one woman have committed robberies with blank ammunition many times. The four of them worked well together, with two riding motorcycles and two supporting them in cars."
